SLIDECAST- more on that When I get to the S in my POT FINDINGS

INTRODUCTION

• Voice Thread - Jing of Pilar's Voice Thread• Great ice breaker and way to establish

community in the on-line class. This ties directly to my next letter – N for Neighborly.

NEIGHBORHOOD

• Building Community (Warm Introduction helps)• Setting expectations and rules for your

community• Personalize your syllabus and class with YOU.

Personalize Your Class – Half Dome – Yosemite ValleyIf I am not at my computer answering you this is where I might be?? Kidding – that is me about 4 years ago, but in reality I am probably working at a client’s office, helping kids with homework, or driving them around – all activities that keep me away from sitting at the computer.

We might even be out selling Girl Scout Cookies

DIFFERENCES

• Differences between learning management systems and how it affects your pedagogy

• The Moodle Official Music Video – amazed me the quality and time these students put into it

• Moodle video on You Tube

INTIMIDATION

• Intimidation – the quality of other people’s video work and creations on the internet can be intimidating.

• Pedagogy First eased those fears • Dean Shareski’s video

Sharing: The Moral Imperative was such a good example of someone sharing his expertise and methods.

NEW THINGSBlogging – http://cpaprof.edublogs.org/Using Diigo for bookmarkingUploading a video to You Tube from my phoneSurveying students using Survey MonkeyCreating a Mind MapCreating a Google SiteCreating a SlidecastUsing Audacity and converting to a MP3 fileUsing Flickr to mark up a photo and Mbedr to embed it. On-Line Educational Theory

• Seems like you can do about anything with Google

• Google could be a whole class in itself to explore all of the features. 8 Ways Teachers & Students can use Google

• Google Site – outside of the traditional learning management system – very beneficial.

SLIDESHARE

• If a PowerPoint is already created, I find it easier to personalize and add my own touch to it. Called Slidecasting when audio added.

• Already using Slideshare in my hybrid class. Exam1 reviewTHANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND DEDICATION TO THIS CLASS.
